Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 49
The next day, in the imperial study room, as soon as Grand Sima Zheng Rong left, Xiang Junhao asked someone to go to General Anguo's Mansion to forcefully take his precious daughter back.

"See Father Emperor!"

Although Xiang Yingxue saluted respectfully, the corners of her mouth were filled with anger, as if she was unwilling to do so.

Xiang Junhao glanced over and saw his daughter, who was tall and graceful, beautiful and agile, willful and lovely.

Not to mention the Yan State, which is a land of bitter cold, even the Chu State, where there are so many beauties, can't find anyone with such beauty.

No wonder Zheng Rong said that even if this girl made a huge joke, King Chen was not angry and the marriage could still be accomplished.

"Are you still angry with your father?"

"My daughter wouldn't dare!"

Xiang Yingxue tilted her head and pursed her mouth slightly, clearly looking like she was having a bad temper, which caused a loving smile to appear on the corner of Xiang Junhao's mouth.

"You even dare to publicly hint to your father to kill the envoys of Yan State in the palace. What else do you not dare to do?"

"The envoy of Beiyan is already ambitious. I exposed it in public in order to protect the country of Chu and maintain its integrity. Why don't you dare?"

"Upright?"

Xiang Junhao looked at his stubborn daughter and sighed.

"Don't think I don't know what you did when King Chen was waiting in the outer palace!
If there is a rumor that the princess disguises herself as an envoy secretly, see how the world will laugh at you!

It's obvious that the alliance was broken due to personal grudges, how can you still have the face to say the word "upright"! "

After hearing this, Xiang Yingxue felt ashamed and angry, and her face turned red.

I want to explain it, but I don’t know where to explain it.

He said that he had long suspected King Chen, so he went to find out first?
He said that he was just curious about whether King Chen looked like the legendary evil spirit, so he changed his clothes and took a peek?

It seems that neither of these two reasons is acceptable to the emperor.

Xiang Junhao felt a little unbearable when he saw his daughter lowering her head listlessly.

"Do you think my father won't investigate what you said?

Early this morning, Zheng Rong brought over the person you mentioned.

You are just a Chu merchant who looks exactly like King Chen, but you almost ruined the alliance between the two countries because of this.Fortunately, King Chen is tolerant and generous. Otherwise, once the two countries go to war, how will you explain to the courtiers and the people? "

"Father, my daughter has very good eyes, how could she mistake someone who only looks a little like her?"

"How long do you want to keep fooling around?"

Xiang Junhao slapped the table hard.

No matter how arrogant Xiang Yingxue was, she was still a little afraid of her father, so she immediately lowered her head in obedience.

Xiang Junhao let out a long sigh, stood up, walked to her side, and helped her up.

"My father didn't really want to punish you to go to Lengyuan that day. It's just that the diplomatic relations between the two countries are not a trivial matter. No matter how much my father loves you, he can't make the envoy unhappy and lose his face. Can you understand the pain of being a father? ?”

Speaking of this, Xiang Junhao hunched over his already slightly old back and coughed a few times.

Although Xiang Yingxue was unruly, she was kind-hearted and had never treated anyone harshly since she was a child.

Although she is willful, she is extremely filial. Her father, mother, queen, and brother are all of first-class importance in her heart.

She looked at her haggard father and felt sad.

"Father, my daughter is indeed a little impulsive. My father cares about the world and has many things to do. My daughter should not let her worry about it anymore."

Seeing her guilty look, Xiang Junhao seized the opportunity and said softly: "Then Xue'er is willing to help your father share some of his sorrow?"

"Of course I would!"

Xiang Junhao nodded, looking pleased that his daughter had finally grown up:
"Xue'er, although King Chen didn't get angry with you over this matter, there is still a gap in his heart after all.

Now that he has arrived in Chu State for the first time, he is unfamiliar with everything here.

Father wants you to accompany him around Yongchun City and entertain him as compensation. "

"Father."

Xiang Yingxue wanted to refuse immediately, but when she raised her head and saw her father's eager eyes, she couldn't bear it.

"...My daughter will obey her father's orders."
